RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] CAM software for solidworks

The majority of things are what I consider 2.5D parts. While they are 3
dimensional in shape, the Z axis moves are straight plunges in and out
of the work piece, which I can easily manage myself.

There are a few 3D parts that are relatively detailed, but I'm anxious
to get started and begin learning at this point, then grow to more
difficult operations later.

Got any suggestions?

Vin,

Are you going to do mostly 2D parts or complex 3D parts?
